You have to tell the authors of the Audiobook Reader to publish the currently-playing audiobook title (and possibly author, if that is important) via ContextKit. This can be done on a high level using Qt Mobility:

The lower-level layer that's used (and can be used directly) is ContextKit:

http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/docs/...providers.html

By the way, this is true for all other apps that want to display something in Billboard as well. Add support for ContextKit properties to the app, tell me how to get the app and the name of the ContextKit property, and I'll try to integrate support into Billboard.

nicodonte, take a look at: /usr/share/fonts/nokia/Nokia Pure/Proportional/NokiaPureText_Rg.ttf

Anything what's in there will display properly if only you set Billboard to use Nokia Pure. You can copy those files to your PC and review/use them there.

Any updates on the events-option?!

It would be nice, if recurrent events will show up on the screen, and the today-events being updated after initial boot.

Thanks in advance!

A little remark:

I'm using the HomeScreenSettings application and changed the network name. I added the network name to my screen thanks to your application, but now even if I'm in airplane mode, the new network name is displayed. Your application is not able to understand that I'm no more connected to the network. I guess it is because you are checking the network name and not if really the connection is done

If you could improve that :) !!

Thanks a lot anyway

the {events} show un-offset timezome +0 time instead of the corrected timezone time... example if my calendar have an event at 2.00pm (+8 timezone is my country setting) then the Billboard {events} show the time as 6.00am (which is correct time for +0 timezone)... not sure this is the Billboard issue or the root issue from N9 Meego itself... or Billboard can make it to add/deduct the timezone offset accordingly??

suggestion: is it possible to make the {events} to show selectable mulitple entrance? of coz I know this is limited by the space available by the oplogo, but at lease users have the option to reduce other items and increase the {events} items they wish.

bug: not sure just me or others also affected regarding the {event} not showing during initial setup, but somehow without any change the {events} just show up later (an unknow delay)... mine only show the {event} after >2 days of running.

@thp: would it be possible to have tags for changing some text to e.g. italic/bold, and for color, e.g. something like:
{i}{full-date}{/i}
{red}{events}{/red}
or would it hit some limitation in LPM mode?
